#and just so much white on screen

[dulcesiabits]

I am so normal about Mhin Touchstarved. I certainly did not go insane over them. I have regular and reasonable reactions whenever they show up onscreen

#liya chats #touchstarved #mhin #spoilers #this is a lie btw I streamed the demo for a friend and she heard me go oh my god. oh my god. I need a moment #when they came on screen #LIKE OK THE DEMO WAS SO GOOD IM HYPED FOR THE GAME TO COME OUT #these scenes surely did not awaken anything in me #surely the emo white haired tsun who pushes people away but is implied to have a soft spot. surely that character won’t affect me so much #tagging this as spoilers just in case for those who haven’t played :3 #touchstarved spoilers

Transcript:

Here we go again, Baldwin Home AKA Black Screen AKA Mister I Wish You Would AKA Sovereign Community AKA Crysanth Kush AKA All the News That's Fit To Sprint Up To You In The Streets And Tell You What's Really Real, delivering another message to the masses:

You already know what it is!

And I don't mean that rhetorically. You ain't heard the news. 

You lived it!

(from far away) Hey, Black, why do they call it the Bontive Valley?

(close to the mic) They call it the Bontive Valley ‘cause the harvests are high yielding. And bit by bit, they're coming back into hand. 

We're talking more crops. We're talking our land. 

After all, we worked it for 

how many thousand years? For 

how many glass Dukes? We cried 

how many midnight tears? 

It ain't worth it to do the damn calculus. They'll just tell us we needed to use trigonometry instead.

“Your numbers aren't right. It wasn't really exploitation.” 

So let me do some simple subtraction: 

Three minus three is dead. 

Y’all sent out your shooters

from your crystalline castle 

from your beige coloured campus 

from your jewel-encrusted church. 

Well, I got news, I’m the paperboy, open up 

front page story

your shooters was flawed, your Duchess a fraud, and we're really, really them. 

And I know what you're thinking. 

I know where your mind's at. 

You're ready to punch back. You’re gonna find out who caused you all of this pain. 

Poor Stargrave, finger on the trigger

poor prophet, dig a little deeper

poor Mr. Entrepreneur,

we've opened a door 

and you're facing it for 

the first time

ever. 

We made you imagine 

a whole world 

without you. Now, get this. 

We do that 

every 

single 

day. 

And it ain't just a vision, it ain’t pipe dreams and conversation, it ain’t blue sky hypothetical, it’s really, really real. All that talk 

all that violence yet our energy remains. 

We're vibrant while you piss poor tyrants got tired just holding our chains.

#palisade #friends at the table #f@tt #baldwin home aka black screen i love you so much #the anaphora in this is just *chef's kiss* #also i thought he was doing 'Black comedian white person voice' but after listening a bunch #i think it's also his keith character voice?? JHDFSJHFS

#kingdom hearts #khml #brain #sigurd #the new little one #my art #I feel like I should let this lie a bit so I can actually take the time to fix my mistakes once they're clearer to me but I'm also. #I spent so long on this I just wanna.. lookie.... #THE WAY THIS GAME IS LIVING IN MY BRAIN WHEN IT'S NOT EVEN OUT YET...

Since we're both as unwell about him as we are I consider you to be someone who knows a fair amount and what do you genuinely think the real James Fitzjames would feel if he saw the Terror's depiction of him? (As in watching the whole show)

HUH good question. first of all i think he'd be a little discombobulated by the very experience of watching a tv show but personally i choose to believe he'd at least be happy he was made into one of the main characters?? and that so many cool and sexy insane people are obsessed with him now <3

having said that. as much as i love show!fitzjames they did nerf him down A LOT. they robbed him of the joyous whimsy that was such a characteristic trait of the real jokester supreme fitzjames (show!fitzjames also has little to no relationship with his irl lieutenant buddies which. sad.)

we also know now that. most probably. he was actually fully english so i can only imagine he'd be Not Pleased about the cairn scene to say it lightly lmao imagine you and your adoptive family making significant efforts throughout your whole life to disguise the fact of your illegitimate birth and then 150 years later some people make a high rating show where they babygirlify you not only spill your secret to the millions of people watching (or secrets, plural, and make you call yourself a fake as a cherry on top lol) but they also get it wrong and make it Even Worse (from a victorian englishman's perspective) like stop guys he's already dead lmfao

having said that. he would have loved the britannia costume and the your nails are a terror line. i know he would.

#look. i personally think it'd be SO funny #like. look. listen. we reblog pictures and memes of him and say how hot and funny he was and it is all true. #dude was incredible and funny as shit and he did do drag and kick ceilings and id give anything to fuck him woah who said that #but he was ALSO an early 19th century white englishboy colonialist lol #(so is show!fitzjames like please my beautiful racist wife is so much more than just her gender issues and stigmata guys....) #and we dont really know much of his actual feelings on crozier (sick owl... i think of that one a lot) so who knows #maybe they did end up in a fucked up yet heartfelt and deeply intimate homoerotic relationship in the end #but it'd be much funnier if they didn't and actually ended up really fucking hating each other lol #id love to lock them both in a room with nothing but a tv screen playing a compilation of their scenes together on a loop #(the 'are we brothers' scene itself is looped three times for maximum awkwardness damage) #ANYWAY #obv we know francis crozier said rpf is fine but we dont know what's fitzjames's stance on that one.... #it doesnt matter anyway. get gendered yaoid and portuguesed idiot #the terror #james fitzjames #og jfj #i wish they'd given tobias the signature forehead curl that makes me lose my mind on the real fiztjimbles #but i want to believe he'd enjoy being portrayed as god's most beautiful specialest little princess in a james ross wig

Something about the "I've always been different/alienated because of something I can't control" plotline being given to a straight, cis, white guy just. . . really annoys me

#i like st picard #and i like jack #but GOD his storyline would be so much more poignant if it was an allegory for queerness #or just some sort of trait that is discriminated against #like. there are people who experience that kind of pain everyday in our society and they are not straight cis white young men #why not put their story on screen? #i don't know if any of this makes sense but it's just how i feel #this show had so much potential in terms of queer characters and storylines and it just shat on them all #st picard #picard season 3 #my post #jack crusher

random but have i ever mentioned how much i love david oakes and his immense acting talents in playing the hedonistic brother of a popular historical figure in period dramas? as well as his wit and his enthusiasm and passion for ecology like...i just find it very endearing how funny, articulate, and intelligent he is, not to mention his evident dedication to the characters he plays and how he always references them in his posts and content. he's simply adorable and brings me so much joy <3

#that's so random but i just miss him #i don't know but i'm suddenly thinking about how much i adore and respect the fuck out of him today so anyway i hope he's having a great day #i also miss him on my screen so there's that #david oakes #the borgias #the white queen #vikings valhalla #juan borgia #george plantagenet #earl godwin #<33 #text post

Atsushi's back in the game!!! ۶( ˆ o ˆ )

#And Kouyou!!!! #Also. I can say Steinbeck is kinda 👀👀👀 #King of the specific category of “I forget I like him until he's on screen��� #I'm seriously unlocking memories with this rewatch. Like I haven't thought about it in two years– #but I just know when I was watching the anime for the first time I was being like #“Of COURSE the villains need to spend several minutes each episode explaining in detail how their own superpowers work so that the– #protagonists can get a perfect idea of how to best counter them. Why are villains made so freaking stupid in this show” aljhvwslchvqliyqwb #But. Eh. I guess that's just bsd to you. #Alsoooooo random thought of the day: I don't really favour how Tanizaki's ability was adapted in the anime. #I very well understand they were going for this green Matrix-like illusion effect‚ but every time someone says “... Snow?” #I'm like please explain where do you live that has snow glowing green. #Aamsjgvfaskjhfv sorry this is me being very. Cranky and nitpicky and having terrible audience etiquette in refusing to– #engage in suspension of disbelief. It just bugs me akvakcvqkyb I just feel like... Green is such a non-snow color– #that quite of completely disrupts the Light Snow / Sasame Yuki aesthetic. I would have liked it much better light blue or simply white. #What else. The way the Guild just goes on at stereotypes still troubles me a lot. The “usamericans can't be touched by laws– #because they use money to corrupt anyone” “foreign criminal organization come in our country to corrupt our pure and untouched soil” #Idk. Maybe all of it is true. Can it still be deemed a stereotype when it's objectively something that's happened before– #and will probably keep happening? #I suppose I'm just not a fan of the constant hostility against any foreigner. Idk. #This situation besides is extremely ironical. If you meet me irl it probably won't take long to see me being very outspoken about– #how much I despise usa cultural colonization of all other countries. It's something that really bothers me‚ how rooted and pervasive– #their influence is. So in a lot of ways I can relate to the author's sentiment #I just feel that. If you start treating them as stereotypes and ignore the complexity of a country and the wide spectrum of causes– #that contribute to its attitude in international relations. You end up practicing precisely what you're trying to criticize. #Okay this is the last time I'm getting into the politics of the Guild arc lol #random rambles #This time I took watching the episode slow I feel a little late

dune 2 is exactly what harry styles meant when he said a movie that feels like a movie. holy hell dude

#goddddddd i cant wait to see it three more times in theaters #dune 2 sweep award season next year i fucking dare you #i’m so serious #feyd alone stole the show and he only had around 30 minutes of screen time #but zendaya too #the way she told so much with just her eyes #was incredible #give them both nominations for this film #cant stop thinking about the black & white gladiator fight #what a fucking intro too!!!!

#uhhhhhhhhhhhhh. yea. my skyrim gang. in some kind of romanceable companions idea kfjdfhkjdk everyone clap and cheer #templates made by me haha i spent a normal amount of time on these hehe i swear ohoh xoxo #i hate hate hate hate posting things that aren't cohesive i hate that the first one is black and the rest white but sadly in my opinion in #white it didn't look as cool as in black while the characters sheets didn't look as good in black as in white. basically i'm shaking like a #small dog rn. i liked the concept so much tho...u know..picking a companion..like the screens in those games like da ecc..just me?.. #anyways they are all so special to me i'd pick them all. also i've been hinting that all three of them love each other so much. it's true #oc: hiraeth #oc: sibylla #oc: dervera #*ocstuff #skyrim

“You’re trapped. There’s no pleasure in saying this but you’re going nowhere”

or

if I think about how the shape of the empires cog is the shape of the prison is the shape of the doorways in mon mothmas apartment for too long I go crazy

version w/o lineart under cut

#guysssss she’s in a prison of the empires making as much as it’s her own she also only has one way out #she’s trapped she’s not in chains but she’s still trapped by the oppression of the empire #there’s so much that can be taken away from this shot. just her apartment in general. perfect and pristine and hiding so much #and still unsafe from the empire no matter how high up on coruscant it is #but also the way the white is so different from the clinical imperial white. except for the shots where it’s purposefully contrasted #thinks about set design and lighting and the purposeful camera shots and starts clawing the walls #anyways listen to metaphor by the crane wives and realize it’s so mon mothma #andor #sw #Star Wars #andor fanart #andor art #mon mothma #mon mothma fanart #screen cap redraw #andor redraw #my art #autodesk sketchbook

slides i got at at the durham scrap exchange store roughly 5 years ago

#idk how to actually display these so i just put them on my phone in the notes app where the screen was all white #and took pics of them with a borrowed phone #lmao #anyway. idk what it is about old photo mediums (slides film etc) that makes them feel so much more special #but they do #no i dont know who any of these people are-- but that adds an extra layer of specialness doesn't it? they could be anybody #anyway. i'm going through my room and finding all the little treasures i have acquired over the years #retro aesthetic

List of Why The Fuck Didn't I Realise I Was Into Women Sooner #2: Catherine Zeta Jones's sword fight with Antonio Banderas in Mask of Zorro.

That part where her hair was hanging loose and wild and he'd cut the shoulder off her nightdress and she disarmed and advanced on him like an avenging Fury, eyes ablaze and breathing hard— fundamentally altered my brain chemistry. Haven't been the same person since.

#granted i only caught it on tv for the first time years after it was released #i think i was in my later teens #but i remember being struck dumb when CZJ appeared on screen #and then the fight scene #i don't even care that she's fucking Welsh and was essentially playing brownface like the entire rest of the white main cast #(although seriously fuck Banderas's white Spanish ass) #it was 1998 and good mother of fuck that was Elena #i was small and ace and very bi and had a heart boner. a heart-on if you will #i wonder whether i'd hate The Mummy so much if I had watched it before I knew it was racist af #although i think baby Rachel Weiz in the Mummy has a spot on the top ten of this list too #how did she look so completely different and elfish in the first movie. i had no idea it was the same woman in the rest of all her films #you could stick her on a music box. blow her away in the wind like a dandelion #although to be honest i have no excuse whatsoever for loving the Prince of Persia. Gemma Atherton. Jake Gyllenhaal. so hot #idk. maybe because they werent playing plunderers of a colonizer fever dream. the rituals are intricate #knee of huss #catherine zeta jones #mask of zorro #just bisexual things

my very first fictional crush vs my current one what do you think they'd talk about if they met

#outing myself as an n lover.... I was never immune to his charms #I don't know why but I've been thinking about pokemon lately and how much I want to replay some of the games #every summer I feel the urge to play a pokemon game #and I was just reminded of N #when young me played black and white and N invited me on the ferris wheel with him.... #and then when he walks towards your sprite really fast so he basically gives u a kiss #I felt things in my heart towards pixels on a screen I have never felt before #I literally remember using the internet function on my ds to search for N x hilda fan art #and I would save it to my gallery so I could admire it later when I was thinking of him #hilda was me btw #he's still so cool by the way I love you natural harmonia gropius #why do I feel like they have nothing in common besides having stupid looking hair #N immediately starts babbling on about how he's gonna liberate all pokemon and aki's like 'ok what is a pokemon is that some kind of devil' #forgive me I can't sleep and so I need to post about my silly little fixations

I got reminded the Lacey's series exists and it really left me confused because... People love and praise that but hate on The Painter?

I want to say it's just bias because Lacey's is very well done style wise (the painter has great art but weak presentation), but Lacey's is pure fucking shock content w little substance. That's why I always hated it. And I still do. It's not even surprising.

And it a way it's fitting for it bc it has that strong 2010s/2000s vibes and horror back then was just like that lmao look at any old creepypasta but it's still edgy as shit.

And I don't want this to be me complaining about that series bc that's not my point what I'm complaining about is how I don't understand how the internet ADORED one but hated the other for arguably the same reasons.

But I also want to complain so see y'all in the tags 👍

#luly talks #disclaimer if you like Lacey's games all power to you in fact I'd like to hear why you like them #but to me they're soooo edgy and boring like god. she's just a papercut creepypasta #down to the woo this normal thing is actually very creepy and corrupted!!! like c'mon man #and it'd be okay if it was just that like ok it's just another project and edgy as fuck one but that's fine #but ppl talk of it like it's so terrifying their hair turned white and their dog died of a heart attack for peeking at the screen like bffr #I've seen miku be scarier and sadder m8 c'mon #it's not bad its just overrated <- possessed by the ghost of 2010s straight UP #like w lacey is just one of those times where if you torture a character too much it just comes out as over the top and you stop caring #there's a trope name for this i dont remember it now tho #the painter at least has my doomer gf and her fucked up dog and gets creative #lacey is everything BUT creative #and its not even a matter of wearing your inspirations on your sleeve bc we all know the painter is so fucking camp so 80s slasher #<- they'd have done a header tho i insist #but like. lacey plays everything so straight and predictably so. #i dont get why ppl adore it it's mediocre at best 😭😭

My printer hates me :) (with many thanks and credit to @niennanir as before)

Gosh aren’t they gorgeous tho ♥ Especially the latest and largest, though I have to give all the credit to the paper on that one haha, it’s stunning IRL, I could almost stare at the gold lattice forever rather than read, but I’m so happy with how it turned out between the pages as well!

Quick showcase of the new additions! :D

My Drinking Game as another test run, I got the spacing how I wanted it! Yay! It’s so much handsomer and less cramped! Also I gotta say, if it wasn’t such a large usage of paper, this would be my ideal way of checking for typos - I found a couple after setting it down to ink lol, they’ve been fixed now at least ♪ Paired here with the emerge, transformed three-parter, one of my all-time-favourites <3 I reread it the night I finished it and cried again, a little bit of tender mercy always wrecks me hhhh ♥ There are so many beautiful evocative lines! I’m so happy to hold it ♪ And as you can see above, that was the one that got the cute little ghost dust jacket :D

Another test run of what I’m calling volume 1 of my Vargas Drabbles lol, so not including Have you lost your mind? since that one’s currently unfinished. I do fully intend to print it once it’s done tho :3c Hopefully that one will cause me fewer problems! I hate measuring, so I may have flubbed two covers before finally getting this one into good enough shape XP And my red yarn is still in storage so >.> Did I go purchase another ball of red yarn? I’ll never tell. You can’t tell me it doesn’t look great as a bookmark tho <3

And my current happiest! Ah!! It turned out fantastic on all counts! The cover paper obviously, as I couldn’t Not lead with that, but also the size of the spine and the way the pages settled against each other while glueing - I used a different type of paper for this one and I think I’m completely converted over, it feels amazing to work with. Whatever I was using before had to have been like 15lbs lol, I’m literally just using normal 20lb printer paper but it feels and looks and behaves so much nicer <3 The size of Helix also allowed for a slightly larger bookmark, which was perfect because we had this soft gold ribbon that was all of a couple millimeters wider than the other ribbons/yarn I’d been using, and it looks so so so pretty with the gold detailing!! I’ve put it between Ch. 1 and 2 and getting to see the actual physical size differences of the chapters is so fun ♥

#Hhhhhh crafting is so funnnnn <3 <3 <3 #Fully intending to make more - I have the next set picked out and the accompanying dust jacket to go with it haha #I've decided to stick to dust jackets for the plain non-textured covers for the most part #It does hide my detailing on the covers but it also hides if I haven't done anything to the fronts as well! Haha ♪ #I added a Captain/ZEX caption to Drinking Game like I did with ZEX/DAX but the latter is still the prettiest by far <3 #Their names were made to go together you could say hehe ♪♫ #You can kinda see I tried my hand at making a custom cover for the Vargas drabbles as well - it kiiiinda turned out? Lol #As stated I hate measuring and the lines turned out wonky :P But it's done and I've reread it for typos lol #I was worried I'd find rereading my own work cringy since most of those are older than either of my SCII fics but no it was nice actually :) #I did actually go supply shopping yet again for these since I'm having so much fun with it hehe <3 <3 #The yarn and the cover paper I used for Helix were both good finds :) I got a whole booklet of space-themed cardstock! :D #That one was one of the lesser space ones hehe ♪ I had a couple other considerations - like a yellow-on-white constellation one ♫ #But I think I'm the happiest with this one! It's beautiful and I feel like it reflects the Idle Rich themes a little bit hehe <3 #Hhhhhhh it's so nice to read them like I would a book ♥ I enjoy reading them on my iPod but there's something about The Experience hehe #Being able to hold it and place a physical bookmark and not having the glare of a screen or if the scroll goes funny lol #Just exactly what it is! And I can pull any of them at any point! #I actually had a moment where I wanted to read one of them but didn't want to move from my spot to physically go get it #Only to realize later I was holding my iPod at the time and could've read it that way as it's still very much available online lol #SCII #LAC #Vargas
